VIDEO: J.R. Smith wants to get paid like Kyrie Irving
In virtually every socioeconomic setting, J.R. Smith is a very wealthy man.
Nevertheless, the Cleveland Cavaliers shooting guard - who received a two-year, $10-million contract in August - seems to be a tad envious of his teammate Kyrie Irving's annual earnings.
After Sunday's victory over the Philadelphia 76ers - a game in which the Cavs lead guard made his much-anticipated return from injury - Smith reacted to an innocent error made by a reporter during his postgame interview by admitting he'd like to get that "Uncle Drew" cheddar.
When the reporter mistakenly calls Smith by Irving's name, "The Prodigy" chuckles and says "I'll be Kyrie. Let me get paid like Kyrie, too."
Although Irving signed a five-year, $90-million deal in 2014, Smith has earned more than $40 million throughout his 11-plus years in the Association.
You'll be just fine, J.R.
